The ease in which the GOP manipulated the teabaggers

[noise]

Their "heroes" have convinced them:

That anything short of unregulated capitalism signifies the downfall of America.

That the GOP stands for freedom.

That the GOP cares about their welfare.

There are sound arguments to be made against the Obama administration's policies but those arguments are all from the left.

1. Actually, teabaggers are loose cannons on the decks of the SS Republic nt

2. RW churches have primed them for the GOP.

3. But the irony is that now the GOP ...

... is in thrall to these crazed idiots!

They love Sarah Palin, so now McCain needs Palin
to help HIM!

Life can be very strange.

4. I still think the GOP is in the drivers seat

The GOP has the teabaggers rooting for economic policies that will negatively impact most of them. The teabaggers also help to drive the policy debates further to the right. And the teabaggers embrace GOP manipulation technique 101-scapegoating. Thus all the GOP betrayals and crimes are swept under the rug as the teabaggers are convinced that all the problems in the US are the fault of the Democratic party.
